CCT – COLOR CORRECTION MODE OPERATION:
Use this mode when daylight, tungsten or color temperature blending is desired. The panel is capable of
achieving color temperatures between 3200K and 10,000K. 3200K Is considered tungsten and 5600K
is the daylight setting. Adjusting the panel above 5600K will result in gradually lower CRI, with 9999K
dropping to CRI 89. Because we use both a CRI > 97 3200K chip and a separate CRI > 97 5600K chip,
blending anywhere between these two color spectrums will result in CRI > 97 at any point in between.
Flip the “Toggle” to the down “CCT” position. Press the “Intensity/Menu” button until the menu that says
“CCT” is visible.
To adjust color temperature, press the “Color” button until “CCT” is highlighted by a white box. Turn the
“Color” button clockwise to increase the color temperature and the counterclockwise to lower.
To make fine green adjustments to the selected color temperature, press the “Color” button until “GN”
is highlighted. Turn the “Color” knob clockwise to add green to the light output. In many environments,
it may be beneficial to match the available light by using the color temperature feature but the panel
output may still be of a higher quality than the available light. User can increase the green to decrease
the quality of the panel’s light output until the lower light quality of the environment is matched.
Caution: As green is increased, CRI will decrease.
To adjust brightness at any selected color temperature, turn the “Intensity/Menu” button clockwise to
increase brightness and counterclockwise to decrease.
Instead of manually adjusting the color temperature, the Savage RGB Pro Panel can be adjusted to
simulate various light sources. Press the “Intensity/Menu” button one time. Turn the “Menu” button
clockwise to select: “Light Source”. Press the “Menu” button one time. User will be able to simulate
the various light sources listed in the columns below. Turn the “Menu” to select the desired light output
simulation. From this menu, you can simulate the following Kelvin temperature light sources:
12 = Fluorescent soft white (3200K, CRI 97)
13 = Fluorescent warm white (3600K, CRI 97)
14 = Fluorescent white (4300K, CRI 97)
15 = Fluorescent daylight (5000K, CRI 97)
16 = Camera flash (5500K, CRI 97)
The Savage RGB Pro Panel can save up to 8 color temperatures of the users choice for future use.
With the toggle switched to the “CCT” position, select the color temperature of choice in the “CCT”
menu to be saved. Press the “Menu” button until “Preset” is visible. Turn the “Menu” button until “Preset
Temp” is selected. Press the “Menu” button again and the “Preset Temps” menu should be present.
Turn the “Color” knob clockwise to select the number 1-8 that you wish to be associated with the
selected color temperature. After selecting a number for the first time, the panel will go dark. Press the
“Color” knob again and the selected color temperature will be saved to that number for future use. To
overwrite a previously saved color, turn the color knob until the number to be overwritten is highlighted.
Press the color knob again and the new color will be saved.
3200K - 3900K = Tungsten/incandescent light
4000K - 4900K = Fluorescent light simulation
5000K - 6500K = Daylight
6500K - 7000K = Cloudy day
7000K - 8000K = Overcast day
8000K - 8900K = Hazy day
9000K+ = Snowy day
17 = Fluorescent cool (6700K, CRI 94)
18 = Daylight overcast (7300K, CRI 93)
19 = Daylight shady (8400K, CRI 91)
20 = Snowy day (10,000K, CRI 89)
SOLD SEPARATELY
AC Power Option
Thread the included AC power cord into the Input AC 15V. Switch the “On/Off” button to the “Input AC”
position. The LED back panel should illuminate.
Battery Option
Slide a V-mount battery (not included) such as the Savage BNP-BP190V into the V-mount on the back
of the panel. Slide from left to right until the battery is fully seated. To release and remove the battery,
press the battery release button at the top center above the battery.
